Local Natives have an album coming out soon. Or maybe it already dropped and I missed it somehow. Either way their Thursday night 2010 show was pretty tit. I bet they could land an afternoon Which Stage set.

I only approve the logistical and sensibility of wishlists, and yours is as logical and sensible as trying to bang the business end of a meat grinder.

Well if it happened I wouldn't be the only one in the tent hahaOut of curiosity what 2 or 3 late night acts would you put in a tent opposing the time of my idea? Also- Not a fan of Deadmau5, I just assume he'll be there.

If Deadmau5 is there, it won't be in a tent.

There aren't "2 or 3" late night acts per tent, there's only two.

If Cyprus Hill got a late night the reaction would be slightly less pissed as when the Unchained late night announcement was made.

Die Antwood sucks, but if they were there they'd be a Thursday act that doesn't close the tent. If they were a Fri/Sat late night people would lose their minds.

I'd put anything in a tent opposing Die Antwood and Cyprus Hill and it'd have a ridiculous crowd.

Not being a jerk here, have you been to Roo? That might help you try to predict some of these types of lineups.

Die Antwoord would rock a LN... fact. Ive been to two Bonnaroos and if Unchained can nab a LN anyone can...You didn't answer my question either! Just continued to bash...

I've seen Die Antwood live for free. If given the same offer, I'd pass. That's my personal taste, but if you think someone who can't sell out small venues in NYC is going to play a prime time late-night spot at one of the biggest musical festivals on earth you're crazy.

Unchained got a spot because they went big with Skrillex, I think that's pretty much accepted by everyone by now. We all thought it was a joke, it wasn't a joke, and I don't think Roo will make that mistake again. You skimp on the afternoon acts if you must, not late night. They realize that now (Skrillex had a huge crowd, the This Tent had big crowds, but the other two tents had some of the smallest late-night crowds I've ever seen).

I can't answer a question that doesn't make sense. You're asking me who I would put up against a 3-act late night tent run that, simply put, will never-ever-ever-ever-ever happen. Ever.

Last year's late night situation was weird and I wouldn't expect it to happen again.
